Radhika Apte reveals why she hasn’t been to a salon in three years

The actor shared her beauty routine and favourite skincare rituals with us as she got ready for the Vogue Women Of The Year awards 2018

The Vogue Women Of The Year awards had almost every celebrity A-lister in town dressing up in their most glamorous looks. Among all the stars that attended was none other than Radhika Apte, who was also receiving an award at the prestigious night. She was styled by Vogue India’s own fashion team in a beautiful red Johanna Ortiz dress for the evening, with jewellery by Gemfields, while celebrity makeup artist and hairstylist Namrata Soni created the actor’s intense eye makeup and smooth hair look. The final image of Apte on the red carpet was nothing short of stunning, but it took some meticulous detail, time and a lot of laughter to get there. We trailed the actor through her entire pre-show hair and makeup session with Soni to give you inside access to the behind-the-scenes shenanigans.

Apte, who has taken over every screen in the past couple of months—whether it’s in cinemas or on your binge-watch device of choice—won the Vogue Trends Disruptor Of The Year (Female) award at the yesterday’s ceremony. In the video, she lets us in on details like her skincare tips, the importance of self-care—think hair spas and body massages—why she hasn’t visited a parlour in three years, and why she loves Vogue. We’ve also got Soni to share her top beauty tips on doing makeup for dark skin. Along with letting us into the planning process for Apte’s makeup for the night, she also highlighted the importance of embracing what you’re born with in the video. Check it out now.
